Model-driven outlook for key U.S. economic releases

Published: September 5, 2026 Model: MoneyChoice Forecast Engine, MCP macro forecasts Coverage: PPI, Retail Sales, CPI, Building Permits

Executive Summary

The week of September 7–11, 2026 is thin. Everything the model tracks—PPI, Advance Retail Sales, CPI, Building Permits, Industrial Production—already printed the week before. What those prints showed was broad softening: retail sales down 1.33% m/m, CPI down 1.28% m/m, building permits down 1.28% m/m, industrial production down 1.64% m/m. Producer prices went the other way, with the model putting them up 2.90% m/m. With no tier-one releases on the calendar, attention probably drifts to second-tier indicators and Fed commentary. No single day carries the weight this week.
